I've been watching CraigsList for over a year waiting for a decent used 22/44 drum sander to come available. Came close on one but no success.
So I've decided to just buy new. The SuperMax 25/50 looks good to me but I want to get some opinions from people who own one first. I have a 16/32 now but it only works well for 16". Trying to do two passes to get wider always leave a mark on the panel. I want a drum sander that will take a 20 to 24 inch panel.
A few questions about the 25/50:
1. The motor is 1.75HP which is about the max you can power on a 120V 20A circuit. Do you find that it's underpowered, especially when sanding a wide panel?
2. Should I buy the infeed and outfeed extensions? Or does it work okay without them?
3. If you own one, are you generally happy with it? Glad you bought it?
4. Any other comments about it will be appreciated.
